In this Ask the Expert episode, HR expert Kathleen Hermacinski joins the show to discuss how candidates can assess an institution's approach to work-life balance without asking the question directly. She shares different ways to inquire about weekly rhythms, busy seasons, team support, and leadership modeling. Kathleen also explains what inconsistencies, vague answers, or “family” language may signal, and why observing the communication style during the search offers important clues.

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Connor Smallwood, owner of Smallwood Eye Associates in Gahanna, OH. Dr. Smallwood has built a practice that empowers his life outside the business. His story is a powerful one. Key Takeaways:Buying an established practice gave him a head start with the patient base especially a base that was loyal. Spending time in the practice by himself allowed the practice to slowly transition before the founder retired.Staff is the engine that makes the practice run. Retaining the staff following the transition was critical. Bringing the staff along on the changes over time made a difference.Despite how successful the practice was, there was significant opportunity to improve aspects of the business. Taking it slow, getting one change right at a time was key to bringing staff and patients along on the journey.Building a business doesn't mean you have to grind all day, every day. While that's certainly an option, building a successful business should empower you to live the life you want to live within and outside the business.Prioritizing opportunities outside the office requires prioritization of processes and efficiency within the office such that you're maximizing both the people and time in the office.What Connor is reading:Wild At Heart by John EldredgePractice Advantage Reading List** Don't miss out on an extra $15 rebate for all commercial VSP Eye Exams this year - with $15 extended through June of 2026, and $10 thru the end of next year!

If you feel like you're failing at work and at home, Kendall explains why the problem isn't you — it's the myth you're trying to live up to. She breaks down why "balance" was never realistic, how it fuels guilt and burnout, and why integration offers a more practical, sustainable path forward. Through personal stories and real client examples, Kendall shows how aligning your values, redefining success, and embracing trade-offs can transform both your career trajectory and how you feel day to day. She also shares how to choose one meaningful goal without creating chaos, why flexibility matters more than equal time division, and how to set success metrics that actually reflect what matters to you. This episode is your permission to drop perfection, rethink how you measure progress, and build a career that genuinely supports the life you want. ⭐ In this episode, we discuss: What happens when you chase balance in a world that doesn't operate that way How to integrate career and personal values without losing your mind Why flexibility matters more than equal time across your roles How to define success using only three measurable goals What trade offs look like for real professionals and parents today What's one "corporate game" rule you've learned the hard way?

How can companies make hybrid work seamless, engaging, and stress-free? Michael sits down with Saskia to explore Seatti — a workplace management software designed to help organizations optimize office usage, enhance collaboration, and make hybrid work truly work. Key Topics & Talking Points Hybrid Work Management Software Overview Saskia shared how her company created Seatti, an innovative workplace management platform that helps organizations manage hybrid work environments. Originally built before the pandemic, Seatti addressed early challenges of coordinating office space and desk usage. Over time, it evolved to include social nudging and meetup features that encourage in-person connections and make returning to the office a positive experience. The goal: to improve visibility into office resources, eliminate friction, and make the workday smoother for everyone. Efficient Office Resource Booking System Michael reflected on how efficient workplaces function when spaces are booked in advance, much like reserving a vacation rental. This approach minimizes frustration, breaks down silos, and ensures that rooms and equipment are used purposefully. Together, Michael and Saskia emphasized that a well-organized office experience increases employee satisfaction and motivates people to return to shared spaces. Office Transition and Employee Engagement The conversation turned to the challenges of bringing employees back after extended remote work. Michael and Saskia discussed how physical environments impact culture and engagement. They stressed that a thoughtfully designed office experience can reenergize teams, foster collaboration, and strengthen culture — provided there's a balance between flexibility and structure. Work-Life Balance and Remote Productivity Michael discussed the ethics and realities of working remotely, touching on how flexible workdays often blend personal and professional responsibilities. He underscored the importance of creating fulfilling work experiences where both employee well-being and customer satisfaction are prioritized. The pandemic revealed that when silos are removed and systems are well-designed, productivity and collaboration naturally improve. Flexible Work Models: Challenges and Solutions Michael and Saskia unpacked the mindset shifts needed for organizations to truly embrace flexible work. Saskia noted that fear and outdated managerial habits often slow progress, while Michael warned that rigidity leads to obsolescence. They agreed that younger generations value flexibility over salary, and that trust and training are essential for leaders to manage effectively in a hybrid world. Software Integration and Content Distribution To close, Saskia discussed Seatti's seamless integration into platforms like Microsoft Teams, making hybrid work coordination intuitive and accessible. Michael praised Seatti's approach and confirmed that details about the software would be included in the episode's show notes for listeners interested in exploring the tool. Episode Summary This episode explores the future of hybrid work through technology, culture, and leadership. Michael and Saskia dive into the tools and mindsets shaping how we collaborate, create, and connect in a post-pandemic world. Whether you're an HR leader, facilities manager, or remote-first founder, this conversation offers practical insights on building flexible systems that empower people and optimize performance.

Key TakeawaysPurpose is clarified through experience and reflection, not just passion.Helping others find purpose requires curiosity, coaching, and equipping them with the tools to succeed.Distinguishing passion from purpose involves commitment, impact, and skill alignment.Gratitude and intentional reflection help maintain focus on what truly matters.Leaders can spot misalignment by observing engagement, mood, and energy, but must approach it with curiosity and connection.

Today, Ben sits down with fellow Catholic financial planners Nick Orenduff and Charlie Horonzy for a rich roundtable on what it truly means to live a generous, ordered, and faith-centered life. Together, they wrestle with the tension between self-giving and self-preservation—how to pour ourselves out for God, family, and community without crossing into burnout or misplaced busyness. Nick reflects on the daily discipline of keeping God first, family second, and career third, while Charlie shares how prayer, discernment, and spirituality help him know when to say yes or no to new commitments. The trio also explore how seasons of life shape our ability to serve, how financial boundaries mirror spiritual ones, and why surrendering control is often the most faithful form of stewardship. Woven through their conversation is a deep trust that God's providence can transform even our limitations into grace. By the end, Ben, Nick, and Charlie invite listeners to view their time, money, and energy not as burdens to manage, but as sacred resources to be aligned with God's will—one prayerful decision at a time.Key Takeaways:• A well-ordered life begins by placing God first, family second, and career third—a framework that helps align all other decisions.• True generosity doesn't mean saying yes to everything; it means discerning where God is actually calling you to give.• The way we serve changes as our responsibilities shift—young parents, for example, are called to focus more deeply on family.• Offering our struggles and discomfort to God transforms them into acts of love and participation in His plan.• Recognizing life's brevity encourages intentionality about how we spend our weeks and years.• Our careers, finances, and families are not possessions to control but gifts to steward in loving obedience.Key Timestamps:(01:55) – Balancing Work and Life(07:53) – Trusting God and Letting Go(10:03) – Family Dynamics and Communication(17:42) – Seasons of Life and Service(20:24) – Balancing Volunteering and Personal Boundaries(23:47) –  Navigating Life's Noise and Staying Focused on God(31:46) – The Value of Time and Living IntentionallyMentions:Website: https://www.focusedupfinancial.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charlie-horonzy-cfp%C2%AE-cpa-8802b910/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FocusedUpFinancial# Website: https://www.planmember.com/advisor/?bk=NOrenduff LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicholas-ross-orenduff-cfp%C2%AE-a45a7524b/ Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals by Oliver BurkemanThe Practice of the Presence of God by Brother LawrenceMore of Catholic Money Mastermind:Catholic Money Mastermind Podcast is a personal podcast meant for educational and entertainment.

In this episode, "No Substitute for Work," we dive into the timeless value of purposeful effort—something my Southern grandmother, Mimi, modeled daily as she hand-whipped meringue with a fork and raked leaves from the big oak tree without complaint. Her quiet diligence reflected an era when hard work was both a rhythm and a reward. We'll explore how that work ethic has evolved through history, the lasting benefits of meaningful labor, and how to define an ideal work-lifestyle that balances purpose with peace. In a world obsessed with shortcuts and automation, this episode reminds us that while tools can help, there's still no true substitute for the fulfillment that comes from honest, dedicated work. We cover a brief definition of purposeful work, work ethic, benefits of work and defining your ideal work-lifestyle.

This week Erin and Brennan get the worst job that a million girls would DIE for: second assistant to Miranda Priestly. They deal with getting Michelin-quality steak in 15 minutes, eating a cube of cheese when they feel light headed, and generally giving up carbs because they have been fat-shamed by Stanley Tucci. We really agree that ALL of Andy's friends suck except for Doug (JUSTICE FOR CLOSETED-DOUG!!). I mean, Nate moans most of the movie, Lily thinks it's funny to try and get her friend fired, but Doug is there to be supportive and totally understands why she needs to go to Paris Fashion Week! (To get with Christian Thompson, pretty boy editor-manager-freelance-writer-dude. [Actually, we don't know what he does but he's hot so who cares]). At the end of the day, will Miranda slightly smile or purse her lips at us? We fear the latter.

In this episode of the Power Producers Podcast, host David Carothers and co-host Kyle Houck are joined by Jessica Fukuchi, co-founder of PCRG Insurance. They dive into the often-overlooked world of high-net-worth personal lines insurance and why middle-market commercial producers need to pay attention to it. Jessica shares her journey from a captive agent to building an independent agency specializing in high-net-worth clients, often through referrals from financial advisors. The conversation explores the strategic importance of partnering with a high-net-worth specialist to protect commercial accounts from being poached by large brokerages that offer both commercial and private client services. Key Highlights: Protecting Your Book with High Net Worth Partners David emphasizes a critical vulnerability for middle-market producers: if you aren't addressing the personal insurance needs of business owners and executives, a competitor who does—like a large national broker—can use that as a wedge to take the entire commercial account. Partnering with a specialist like Jessica allows agents to offer this service without having to master the complexities of the high-net-worth market themselves. Navigating the High Net Worth Landscape Jessica explains the nuances of the high-net-worth market, from working with family offices to understanding the complex portfolios of wealthy clients (multiple homes, luxury cars, etc.). She discusses the current hard market for umbrella and excess liability, noting that securing high limits often requires stacking policies from multiple carriers, a strategy far different from standard personal lines. The "Duty to Offer" and Risk Management The discussion touches on the agent's "duty to offer" comprehensive protection. David and Jessica agree that failing to discuss personal excess liability or cyber coverage with a wealthy client is a disservice that could lead to E&O issues. They highlight unique risks like kidnap and ransom for high-profile clients and the importance of addressing the "insurance junk drawer" many wealthy individuals accumulate. Work-Life Balance and Setting Boundaries Jessica shares her personal journey of overcoming burnout by setting strict boundaries between work and personal life. She discusses how delegating tasks, hiring a VP, and being transparent with her team about her need for family time allowed her to regain balance. This segment resonates with the hosts, who also prioritize life experiences and travel over being tethered to the office 24/7.

Hi Mamas, Today we're diving into one of the heaviest things working moms carry… unforgiven hurt. Not the kind that comes after an apology. Nope. We're talking about the kind that sits quietly in your chest, weighs down… especially around the holidays, and follows you into your mornings like an overstuffed emotional diaper bag.

In this episode of Run the Numbers, CJ Gustafson sits down with Vanna Krantz, former CFO of Disney+ and Grindr, to explore what it takes to lead finance through massive inflection points. Vanna reflects on building Disney+'s subscription model from scratch under Bob Iger's leadership and the pressure of launching a global product with no precedent. She discusses forecasting as both science and art, and the importance of appreciating high-stakes moments amid chaos. Shifting to Grindr, Vanna breaks down how the company went public with remarkable efficiency—boasting 40% EBITDA margins and under 200 employees—and how she modeled for a user base that consistently churns and returns. She also opens up about career longevity, work-life balance, and helping women find sustainability and acceleration in leadership.—LINKS:Vanna on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vannakrantz/CJ on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cj-gustafson-13140948/Mostly metrics: https://www.mostlymetrics.com—RELATED EPISODES:Monetizing Community Engagement: The Business of Fitness with Strava CFO Lily Yanghttps://youtu.be/zlLb5yZDKQE“Let's Just See What Breaks” — Intuit's CFO on Being a Disruptor When You're Already the Incumbenthttps://youtu.be/Le1D9HXHvGI—TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 Preview and Intro00:03:02 Sponsors – Aleph, Fidelity Private Shares, and Metronome00:06:09 Meeting at A16z and Disney Plus Discussion00:07:13 Interviewing with Bob Iger and Joining Bamtech Media00:10:43 Forecasting the Unknown at Disney Plus00:13:01 Launch Strategy – Mandalorian and Retention00:15:15 Sponsors – Mercury, RightRev, and Tipalti00:19:23 Forecasting, Retention Curves, and the Art vs. Science Balance00:22:20 Lessons in Art and Science of Finance at Disney00:25:08 Launch Day Chaos and the Disney Plus CDN Outage00:26:24 Celebrating the 10 Million Subscriber Milestone00:27:21 Grindr IPO and Financial Discovery00:32:42 Active User Metrics and Reactivation Trends00:34:29 Seasonality and Human Behavior in App Usage00:36:02 Free vs. Paid Users and Revenue Optimization00:38:21 Pricing Strategy and Global Monetization00:40:23 Women in Leadership and Staying in the Game00:43:30 Work–Life Balance and Career Seasons00:46:12 Wisdom, Experience, and Staying in the Game00:50:08 Finance Stack, Craziest Expense, and Closing Remarks—SPONSORS:Aleph automates 90% of manual, error-prone busywork, so you can focus on the strategic work you were hired to do.
